Texas has great sensation. Twelve
women have been murdered at different
times by an unknown human monster
who has 50 far escaped detection. In
1885 eight women were murdered in
Austin, and recently at Cal nsville two
beautiful young ladies were found dead
in their bed. In every case the only
clue was the bloody track of q human
foot nine inches in length. That was
all. The bodies Of the murdered wo-
men were horribly mutulated In one
instance the naked footprint was trac-
ed to the house Of man, but when
his foot was measured it fell short of
the length Of the bloody track. The
authorities are still working at the
case, and in the meantime the ladies
of GAINESVILLE and Austin are fearing a
midnight visit Of the mysterious fiend.
